  • What are the two types of respiration?
    Aerobic and anaerobic respiration
  • Why is energy important in biology?
    It is needed for movement, warmth, and reactions
  • What is the process that supplies energy in cells?
    Cellular respiration
  • What type of reaction is respiration?
    Exothermic reaction
  • What does aerobic respiration produce from glucose and oxygen?
    Carbon dioxide and water
  • What is the word equation for aerobic respiration?
    Glucose + OxygenCarbon Dioxide + Water
  • What happens during anaerobic respiration in muscles?
    Glucose is converted to lactic acid
  • What is a key fact about anaerobic respiration?
    It releases much less energy than aerobic respiration
  • What is produced during anaerobic respiration in yeast?
    Ethanol and carbon dioxide
  • What is anaerobic respiration in yeast called?
    Fermentation
  • How is anaerobic respiration in yeast useful for making drinks?
    It produces ethanol for alcoholic drinks
  • How does anaerobic respiration help in bread making?
    Carbon dioxide creates bubbles, causing rise
  • What are the main differences between aerobic and anaerobic respiration?
    • Aerobic respiration requires oxygen; anaerobic does not.
    • Aerobic produces more energy; anaerobic produces less.
    • Aerobic produces carbon dioxide and water; anaerobic produces lactic acid or ethanol and carbon dioxide.
